Hi Markus,
and thanks for your reply. I'd like anyway to say that I don't really 
understand your points. All the applications I use IMHO break what you 
call the "GUI standard". Can you explain me why amarok has 3 panels, but 
no mainview? And why okular has that strange bar on the left, instead of 
using a panel for? I ever wanted move it to the right part. Dolphin has 
this nice "address bar" that is not part of the toolbar. And so I cannot 
move it where I prefer. And where are menubar & statusbar in 
systemsettings? Wanna talk about konsole? Or about...

If I want tabs on top, I don't understand why I should use KWin's 
tabbing feature. Or Chrome. I can implement it on my self in rekonq. And 
I'm quite confident that in the way things will be, it will be a nice 
and improving feature, not just a tab move.

If you wanna quit using rekonq you are obviously free to do it. What I'm 
sure I understand and I surely wont permit is someone trying 
blackmailing me/us saying something like "if you do/don't do this, I'll 
quit doing/using/saying that".

Regards,
Andrea.
